Zero Down Time Deployments in Kubernetes

If you’ve run web based applications in Kubernetes, you (or your users) may have noticed a spike in errors and 503’s when rolling out new versions of your application. In this webinar, we’ll look at some of the strategies you can use to rollout application changes with 0 downtime.

We’ll cover important topics like:
*Kubernetes pod termination lifecycle
*Shell vs Exec form in Dockerfiles
*Proper signal handling for graceful pod shutdown
*Readiness and Liveness probes for monitoring application health

There will be a workshop portion where we will take an example application which is having 503’s during rollouts and use the strategies discussed in the webinar to eliminate them and achieve 0 downtime rollouts.
